We stayed in the king room and it was fantastic. Good size room, decor really lovely, bed was so comfortable, blackout blinds for a sleep in and an incredible shower. The location is on point, 5mins walk to casino, 10mins to Seafood markets, directly across from walkway bridge to city and bonus points that parking station is literally 200mtrs from car to hotel door. 100% would stay again and recommend.
